Bilgram Mallanwan Assembly Election 2017

Current Trend

In the 2014 Lok Sabha general elections, Bilgram Mallanwan assembly segment had given a huge lead of 53425 votes to the BJP’s nominee of Misrikh parliamentary seat Anju Bala who got 105973 votes in this assembly segment. This is a sharp rise from just 5375 votes which the party secured in 2012 assembly election to the seat. This sharp rise of BJP’s votes prompted the sitting BSP MLA Brijesh Kumar to desert his party to join the BJP.

However, it may not be so easy for the BJP in the 2017 assembly elections when caste and other local factors will come into play in determining the performance of a party.
